Ship production AI without hiring a team or burning another budget cycle.
Senior AI engineers on your project from day one. Story-point pricing — you know exactly what you're getting before a line of code is written. Full IP transfer when we're done.
Not a consultant. Not offshore. Not a hire.
Three categories of alternative — three reasons they fall short.
Every sprint closes with deployed software — not a strategy document, not a roadmap, not a recommendations slide.
Senior engineers only — no juniors on delivery, ever. Before a line of code is written, we validate the problem, the architecture, and the expected outcome.
Faster to start, no recruitment overhead, no risk of a wrong hire. When the project is done, the IP is yours — and so is the institutional knowledge we leave behind.
Two ways to engage
Start with a Proof of Concept or move straight into continuous product delivery. Both formats use story-point pricing — you know exactly what's included before work begins.
A PE-backed Australian healthcare group engaged Stack Build to ship four interconnected AI systems — an intelligence layer, a compliance agent, Xero reconciliation, and a procurement workflow. The result: 98% reduction in manual compliance processing within the first quarter of operation.
Proof of Concept
A working AI system on real production data, deployed in your environment.
- Working AI system built on your actual production data
- Deployed inside your own environment — not a sandbox
- Senior engineers only — no juniors on delivery
- Full IP transfer on completion, no retainer required
A deployed, working AI system and full ownership of the codebase — enough to secure board approval, extend internally, or hand to Stack Build for the next phase.
Product Development
Continuous delivery over months — full system design, architecture, and enterprise integrations.
- Sprint-based delivery — working software every two weeks
- Full system design, architecture, and technical ownership
- Enterprise integrations: SAP, Salesforce, Microsoft, legacy systems
- Data infrastructure and MLOps included
A production AI product — fully integrated, documented, and yours. No vendor lock-in, no ongoing licensing fees, no dependency on Stack10 to keep it running.
Pricing is story-point based — you know exactly what you're getting before a single line of code is written. No hourly billing. No scope creep surprises. Contact us for a custom quote.
Four phases. Every engagement. No exceptions.
Most AI projects stall because architecture is treated as an afterthought. We lock it first. Speed and security are not trade-offs — they are the result of a process engineered to remove the specific bottlenecks that slow down AI delivery. Story points locked before day one. Senior engineers only. Security architecture defined in week one, not week seven.

Every Stack Build engagement includes structured review checkpoints at day 30 (architecture locked and validated), day 60 (core build complete), and day 90 (production-ready handover). You always know where you stand — and so do we.
How the 30/60/90 framework works across all Stack10 engagementsCapabilities
Stack Build covers the full AI engineering spectrum — from a rapid POC to complex agentic systems and customer-facing products.
- Proof of concept on real production data
- Internal AI tools and workflow automation
- Agentic systems and autonomous process automation
- Customer-facing AI products and features
- Enterprise system integrations (SAP, Salesforce, Microsoft, legacy)
- Data infrastructure and MLOps
Stack Build is the right engagement if…
- You have board approval for AI investment but no team in place to execute it
- A pilot has been running for months with nothing deployed — and the board is asking why
- You've tried to hire senior AI engineers and found the talent pool too thin or too slow
- You need a working POC in 6–8 weeks to demonstrate ROI and unlock the next budget cycle
- An existing AI initiative has stalled — technically or strategically — and needs a reset
Wondering whether we can actually deliver?
Fair question. Our answer is a Proof of Concept: six to eight weeks, working software on your data in your environment. If it doesn't work, you haven't committed to anything more. Most clients who start with a POC are in Product Development within ninety days.
